    okay but we need one with the foci and a given point

    Excellent explanation of the topic! I'm a Civil Engineer, this and other of your videos help me out to clarify some doubts for the FE Exam for Engineers!! From Puerto Rico a big Two Thumbs Up for you!

    Thanks. This really opened my eyes! You should demonstrate on how to find the standard equation when given only two passing points...

    What if there's no given value of vertex?
    What if the only given is a foci and a point

    • @wtolman

      the center of the foci is the center. He had the center as given just because it was basically given by the vertices. Same applies to foci.

      but foci is c^2, it can’t derive a^2 nor b^2

    Thanks Mr. McLogan! My textbook had me really stuck and your video made it super clear.

    Dear Mr. Mc.Logan,
    Thank you so much for such a great tool! I was a little confused on your beginning though: how could you so clearly state that the ellipse was going to be vertical? I couldn't tell if the vertices were given for the major axis or the minor axis.
    Thank you again!

    • @brianmclogan

      +Ojus Khanolkar vertices for major axis, co-vertices for minor axis. happy to be able to help

    my precal professor mentioned you on the first day of class but couldn’t remember your name so I said it’s Brian Mclong 😂 I was pretty close tho.

    so i take college algebra and i was a bit confused on a particular problem so i figured ill just look up a tutorial on how to find equation given the vertex and one point, turns out the EXACT SAME problem you did this tutorial on happened to be the one i needed help on, as in my textbook it say v(0,plus/minus5) and (4,2)

    Got curious which standard form will I'll be using.

    • @brianmclogan

      standard form of a parabola in conic sections

  • @orochich.9304

    what if u were given a point and foci is it possible to make it into an equation?

    • @brianmclogan
      @brianmclogan  8 років тому

      absolutely, if you search my video I am sure I have made a video over it

    • @orochich.9304

      i cant find ur vid with given a point and foci with (0,0) as its center

    • @brianmclogan
      @brianmclogan  8 років тому

      what type of equation, parabola, ellipse, hyperbola?

    • @orochich.9304
      @orochich.9304 8 років тому

      ellipse.. im curious about it coz our teacher didnt answered it.. so i tried to search it if its possible or not

    @soyyy8691 8 років тому +1

    What if b=0? Wouldn't that make it incorrect? I remember that my teacher taught me an alternative way than cross multiplying but I can't remember what exactly it is.....I might mistaken :p
